Articles about Anura Ranasinghe


Profile:

A schoolboy prodigy Anura Ranasinghe made his international debut in the 1975 World Cup against the might of the West Indies whilst still only 18 years of age. Ranasinghe played in all three matches for the Sri Lankans without producing any performance of note. His test debut came on Sri Lanka's inaugural Test tour of Pakistan in the second Test at Faisalabad. Ranasinghe struggled with the bat scoring 6 and 5 batting at number seven. Despite taking the new ball he was used sparingly although he did take 1/23 in the first innings. In the one off Test against England Ranasinghe appeared to be out of his depth bowling just seven overs and scoring a duck. However, at his best when his back was against the wall he responded with a combative display scoring 77 in the second innings. Still only 25, Ranasinghe had a number of years left to establish his position as a quality Test allrounder but he elected to join the tour of South Africa thus prematurely ending his international career and ensuring his early potential went unfulfilled. (Johann P Jayasekera , Sep 1999)
